  2. USAV - “ …If, in the judgment of the 1st referee, no player from Team S could have made a play on the ball before it passed under the net, there was no interference.” And if there was a player from Team S that could’ve made a play, but didn’t?

Ball coming from your court touches opponent under the net. Ball is dead.
  1. If interference - your point. Pretty much never.
  2. If no interference - opponent’s point. Almost always.
Either way the signal is pointing under the net.
1, it's a fault, if not by the opponent, then the team that hit the ball there.
2, if they could have made a play, then it's a fault. Pretty obvious on whom the fault would be.
